Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and nursing measures of infection in hospital ICU,and to provide the refer-ence for clinical nursing. Methods From January 2010 to June 2013,116 patients with nosocomial infection in surgical ICU were collected as observation group,and 72 patients with nosocomial infection in the surgery were as the control group. The risk factors of nosocomial infec-tion were retrospectively analyzed,and the problems related to nursing were discussed. Results The nosocomial infection rate was 8. 44% in ICU,which was significantly higher than the surgical infection rate(4. 43%) in general ward (P<0. 05). Whether patients in ICU or surgery ward,respiratory and urinary tract infections were the most common site of nosocomial infection. The mortality rate in ICU was 9. 48%,which was higher than that of nosocomial infection in surgical ward (4. 17%),P<0. 05. The nosocomial infections were obviously related to the age of patients,duration of hospitalization,the invasive operation,antibiotic and immunosuppressive agents and disturbance of consciousness in ICU and general wards (P<0. 01). Conclusion The ICU nosocomial infection rate was significantly higher than that in general ward,the main infection sites are respiratory tract and urinary tract,with a variety of factors,the key is to establish the mechanism of prevention and ef-fective nursing strategy.

Once uveal melanoma (UM) has distant metastasis, the median survival time of the patient is less than 12 months. There is currently a lack of standard treatment for metastatic UM. In recent years, immunotherapy is splendid in the field of oncology. Immune checkpoint therapy, cancer vaccine therapy and T cell adoptive therapy have been applied to UM therapy. However, most of the clinical effects are limited and the survival benefit is not high. The recent early research results of the new immunotherapeutic drug IMCgp100 are encouraging.

Journal of Environment and Health 1993;0(01):-
During the last decade a lot of new learning about asthma was arisen along with the development of modern immunology and molecular biology,and asthma had been one hotspot in the studies of molecular biological and administer medical field.One of the new viewpoints was that airway neurogenic inflammation took important role in asthma development.For years scholars had suspected that airborne pollutants had an synergistic effect on the attack of asthma and could cause asthma attack,but they did not know the molecular mechanism.In 1991 Denish scholar Nielsen GD advanced a new hypothesis that airway irritation was mediated by capsaicin receptor.The pathological process included a molecular chain of message transfer as air pollutants_capsaicin receptor_Ca2+_substance P_neurokinin receptor.Airway neurogenic inflammation was the result of activation of the receptors.In 1997 American scholar Caterina MJ and his colleagues successfully obtained the cloned capsaicin receptor in expressing cells,this will make Nielsen GD's hypothesis living.

Microbiology 1992;0(01):-
The fermentation broth of one actinomycete strain ACMA006 strongly inhibited growth of many tumor cells and some microorganisms, but its cytotoxicity to human normal cells were weak. Strain ACMA006 grow well on most tested media, producing exuberant vegetative hyphae and aerial hyphae. Its optimization temperature is 28?C. Phyloge-netic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence showed that strain ACMA006 was closely related to one of the genus Streptomycetes (S.cavourensis subsp. washingtonensis) with 16S rDNA sequence similarity values of 100%, but had many differences in other features including its morphology, physiological and biochemical characteristics. The pre-liminary study supported the view that the strain ACMA006 represented a new strain of the S.cavourensis subsp. wash-ingtonensis.
